The Bergen

C   Am   F   C     Am   Dm C F   Dm C G    C

[Verse 1]
                ~                  Am                F
Sleep while you wake me with these dreams you bring
                          Em
Dreams came to me where I lay
   F         G          C    ~     Am
And deep the melody the wild waves sing
Dm         C         F
My love is far, far away


[Chorus]
       C         ~          Am
Oh, and pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F              C
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen


[Verse 2]
                ~             Am              F
They heap their nets upon the decks by night
                          Em
Dreams came to me where I lay
   F          G             C    ~  Am
And creep out gently to the dead of night
Dm         C         F
My love is far, far away


[Chorus]
       C         ~          Am
Oh, and pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen

C  ~ Am   Dm C G    C


[Verse 3]
              ~            Am              F
They reap the harvest of a cold night sea
                          Em
Dreams came to me where I lay
  F           G                  C     ~   Am
It leaps with herring 'neath its decks for me
Dm         C         F
My love is far, far away


[Chorus]
       C         ~          Am
Oh, and pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F              C
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen


[Verse 4]
            ~              Am              F
Steep waves rise above its cold bare head
                          Em
Dreams came to me where I lay
   F        G         C      ~  Am
And keeping safe as I lie in my bed
Dm         C         F
My love is far, far away


[Chorus]
       C         ~          Am
Oh, and pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F              C
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen

[Verse 5]
              ~                  Am            F
It weeps with rain tonight where my love lies
                          Em
Dreams came to me where I lay
   F          G       G/A        C   ~   Am
And sweep the foreign sands from out his eyes
Dm         C         F
My love is far, far away


[Chorus]
       C         ~          Am
Oh, and pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F            C
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen


[Chorus]
C        ~          Am
Pity the hearts the wild waves part
   Dm             C          F
My love sails the bonny boat, the Bergen
